Sean first messaged me with a cheesy pickup line on Hinge. On our first date, I met him in the parking lot of Bucca Di Peppo where we shared a bowl of pasta, and he told me the alligator story. Then he took me to the drive-in, and we chatted for hours in the back of his bronco (which was clean back then lol). Our second date, we took Sully and Casper for a walk in Mt. Lebanon. I went into an ice cream shop to get our sweet treats, and poor Sean had to deal with Sully’s howls because he was upset that I left for two seconds. It was definitely his first peak into the chaos that is my life. To be fair though, on my Hinge profile, it did say that “dating me is like whiplash”. I think Sean still agrees with that, but he somehow loves me anyway. After our walk, I stole his debit card and then he kissed me, and I still talk about that kiss to this day. Once my brother and I moved into our new house, Sean spent a ton of time with us. He embraced my love for animals, and is now a proud dad of TWELVE animals. When my Niles passed away, he dug him a grave and gave him a loving farewell. He even bought me a tombstone to decorate. On October 25, 2024, Sean took me on a trip to Seven Springs. A “special” trip as he called it. So naturally, I knew exactly what was going to happen. Keeping secrets are not his strength. Sean took me for a moonlit walk where he got down on one knee and proposed. I cannot wait to marry him. In the future, we are hoping to have a big family and a farm, so wish us luck! Good thing Sean has a four leaf clover tattooed on his forearm.
